Normal Design: Depressurize From Design Pressure To 50% in 15 Minutes

This document summarizes the calculation of vent stack dimensions according to API521 standards. The calculations determine that the required vent stack area is 0.06 square meters, equivalent to a diameter of 0.27 meters or 11 inches. The flow rate through the vent stack is calculated to be 200 cubic meters per hour. The recommended vent stack height is at least 3 meters higher than the tallest equipment or building, according to API521 standards.
